has anyone decided to go LED instead of bulbs in your fieros???
looking to that this winter.. so on with the questions:
 
1) how many bulbs are in the instrament cluster?? 

2) did anyone change out the turn bulbs to LED and if so,
2a) was there a problem with the car thinking the bulb are burnt out, with the volt draw being lower then the regular bulb????

3) did anyone change out the break and reverse light and any problems with them
same as 2a..

thanks
all

1) I changed the bulbs in the cluster for blue led.
If I recall well, there is 6 of those.

2) I changed front side turn signal to led. You need an
electronic flasher relay. 5$ at your local part
dealer.

2a) The car does not monitor light bulbs. The only
concern is with the flasher relay.

3) I changed the backup lights to led, but returned to
regular bulbs. The led I bought were not bright enough.

I also changed for LED, all the interior bulbs, except for
ashtray, an the trunk bulb.

thanks falcon for the info... i just pulled the back of my instr cluster and found 16 bulbs but i will only use 8,, cuz there is 2 for turn, 1 batt, 1 shift, 1 check eng and so on.. so those less used will stay as bulbs.. lol..

thanks for the relay info where can i get one and where do i install it??

thanks
joe

ISn't it amazing how easy it is to change a bulb in this cluster? Just unscrew, Pull out the socket and pop the bulb out. And people ask me why I drive this car:)

hell ya.. and if u have a spare cluster u dont even have to to that part to figure out how many u need and the size.. lol.. but i am wondering about the relay and how that works..
lol 

and yes the fiero is the best...... ever..

The Flasher relay is under driver side dash.

It is the little box which is making the clic-clic noise.

The easiest way to find it is to have it working while you are lieing on your Fiero floor.:)
